About Perkin Yang
Perkin is the founder of Oshen Studio — a studio at the intersection of AI, automation, and intentional storytelling. He builds AI-powered systems by day and tries to understand what they mean for us by night.
Still Human started from a simple frustration: most conversations about AI were either naively optimistic or catastrophically pessimistic. Neither felt honest. The podcast is Perkin’s attempt to find the more complicated, more human truth.
